- Once the crockpot has finished, pull out the chicken onto a cutting board, and shred.
- Add the chicken back to the crockpot and add your egg noodles as well.

- If you find that the sauce isn’t as thick as you like, you can add 1-2 tbsp. cornstarch with water to thicken it, just let it sit for about 20-30 minutes to have time to do its magic. Add a vegetable or two and you have yourself a filling and delicious dinner, and for our family of 4, this makes plenty of leftovers, as well.
